Orostachys Crazy Eddie Part Sun to Light Shade since it was first introducedOrostachys 'Crazy Eddie' is a hybrid shared with us by our friend the late orostachys sedum breeder Crazy Ed Skrocki. Orostachys 'Crazy Eddie' is an Orostachys japonica hybrid that forms a 5" wide, fleshy, green leaved rosette that offsets like hens and chicks to form an 18" wide patch. The monocarpic evergreen rosettes are topped with 13" tall, heavily branched flower spikes, each bearing several hundred small, star shaped, white flowers in October.
